|
-Isolation (intracellular fluid-cytosol and extracellular fluid)
-Regulation -Sensitivity -Support |
|
Structure of the Cell membrane contains? (3)
|
Lipid, Carbohydrates, and functional proteins
|
|
Membrane protein functions (6)
|
anchoring, recognition, enzymes, receptors, carrier proteins (passive & active), channels (very selective, always passive)
|
|
What is the cytoplasm?
|
all materials inside the cell and outside the nucleus:
-cytosol(intracellular fluid) nutrients, ions, proteins, and waste products -organelles structures with specific functions |
|
What makes an organelle nonmembranous?
|
no membrane, direct contact with cytosol
|
|
Nonmembranous organelle... What is the cytoskeleton?
|
structural proteins for shape and strength (keratin), anchor other organelle, cell contraction (actin and myosin)
|
|
Nonmembranous organelle...
What is the microvilli? |
outfoldings of plasma membrane, increase surface area for absorption, attach to cytoskeleton
|
|
Nonmembranous organelle...
What is the cilia? |
cilia move fluids across the cell surface, the core of the cilium is made of microtubules (cytoskeleton)
|
|
Nonmembranous organelle..
What do ribosomes do? what are the two kinds |
Build protein, two types: free ribosomes in cytoplasm (cell), fixed ribosomes attached to ER (secretion)
